To fully investigate these properties and utilize semiconductor nanoparticles in such applications, it is necessary to have highly repeatable synthesis methods resulting in monodisperse samples of quantum dots. This project demonstrates repeatable methods to synthesize highly monodisperse samples of PbS nanoparticles involving the thermal decomposition of an organometallic lead precursor, incitation of a rapid nucleation event by injection of a sulfur precursor, and growth controlling surfactants at high temperatures. Optical properties, such as the absorption and photoluminescence, of the synthesized PbS nanoparticles are measured using FTIR and spectrometry. Nanoparticle size is determined by the use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). An analysis of the relationship between PbS quantum dot optical properties and size is carried out using the measurements obtained from these methods. laser Crystallization of Zinc oxide Thin Films Joseph W. Eun Adviser: Prof. James Im The primary purpose of this project was to determine and understand the effects of laser crystallization and temperature on zinc oxide thin films, and to find regions at which the thin film underwent a phase transition and minimize cracking and ablation. My investigation involves a series of experiments (at various energy densities and temperatures) and observations using various modes of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, etc. Benchmarking of dectris mythen 1K strip detector for pair distribution Function Analysis of synchrotron diffraction data Karim Tanju Mukaddem Adviser: Prof. Simon Billinge The Mythen 1K Strip Detector from Dectris is an x-ray detector that promises, among many other features, an excellent signal-to-noise ratio. The purpose of this project is to determine the suitability of the Mythen 1K for atomic pair distribution 1 1 function (PDF) analysis of synchrotron powder diffraction data and to identify the challenges and advantages that come with it. The project entailed the collection and processing of data from samples with known structures, using this detector and benchmarking the obtained
